About Me:
Frank Wilson, professional artist, muralist and illusionist is your “Painter of Dreams”. Frank is a member of the International Guild Of Realism, and he invites you to see his vision of the world with his paintings, murals and astounding glowing night illusions.
About My Art:
For all the years that I have been creating art, I have always looked to nature for relaxation, inspiration, and creativity. I remember when I was a young man and I would hike up into the mountains to camp out under the open sky… lying under all those beautiful stars and contemplating the vastness of the universe away from the light pollution of the cities. For me it was exciting as well as soothing. I wanted a way to capture that feeling for my clients. So, In addition to fine art and custom mural work, I have been experimenting with painted illusions in the tromp l'oile tradition. One of the most amazing painted illusions that I have discovered involves the use of specially formulated, glowing phosphors to create the illusion of the starry heavens on ceilings and walls in total darkness! The ceiling mural is invisible by day, your ceiling looks completely normal, just as it does right now. But at night, when the lights are off it appears that your ceiling is gone and you are looking up at the most beautiful starry night sky imaginable!
